Retro Arcade: Dot Fighter

The night the old arcade closed, I dropped in my last coin and the screen swallowed me whole. Now the sky is a jumble of old games, and all I have is one little pixel ship. Every world adds a rule The backbone is a vertical shooter: a formation that breathes side to side and peels off into dives. On top of that, each world borrows one rule you may remember from an old arcade. Punch blocks from below for coins and chase a sliding mushroom. Fill a hunger gauge and swing a club. Bat bullets away with a sword and dodge rising spikes before the sand runs out. In Bubble Land your shots do not kill at all, they trap. The shooting stays the same, but what you should be doing keeps changing. No two runs are the same A run is four worlds, drawn fresh every time. Before you start you pick one of three twist cards: ricochet shots, rapid fire, forced march, plating, riches. Every two loops the enemies get tougher and the score multiplier grows with them. One finger Drag anywhere and the ship follows. Firing is automatic, so all you do is dodge. Bullets that graze you are worth points, and a clean streak raises your multiplier. No ads while you fly No ads while you are moving your ship, and nothing pops up the moment you die. Interstitials only appear when you start a run and between stages every two loops. No purchases, no paid ships, no timers. You get through on skill alone. Offline, no account Works with no connection at all. No sign-in, no sign-up; your records stay on this phone.
